Very upset right now. Just got my Elite 19 Daniel Bryan, the figure I've been wanting most since his outdated Elite 12 release... and of course right out of the package, he has that messed up leg peg. Where it doesn't allow his one leg to correctly go up without snapping the peg off. So I can't move his one leg. This seems quite common with lots of my Mattel Elites.
I'd get in contact with Mattel/RSC, but I refuse to pay to ship it back after paying $22 for the figure in the first place. Shouldn't need to pay to send a figure back that should have no errors in the first place.
Again, this is at least the fifth figure I've had this issue with. Some have broken because of it, others just sit in a box because I can't move the leg without it breaking. Anyone else have this problem?

Put it in hot water for about a minute and the peg should budge a bit. Then just move it back and forth until its unstuck.

It worked! Thanks SO much! To think of the figures I could've saved with this knowledge.
Now, let's bring that Karma back to even. Haha +1

Yes run it under hot water for a couple minutes it should work. Sometimes after it cools off it'll lock up again and you'll have to do the process more than once, but eventually it'll work.

Just recently happened to me with my elite 12 Justin Gabriel. This has also happened to my E5 Mark Henry, and E6 CM Punk.

I have had 4 CM Punk Elite 6's (Where I live, they are warming the peg.) and they have all had that same problem.

Numerous elites of mine have had this same problem. 20-0 Taker, various Punks, Rick Rude, Goldust, WM26 Swagger, at least one Kofi...
